I'm toying with this idea. From the small bit of research I've done, it looks like a lot of trucks that do not have sleeper cabs have their gas tanks mounted further forward. I've kept it closer to the front, because with that piece, I like the idea of it adding another "step up" for access to the cab. If I have enough room to move the gas tanks back, and also add an appropriate step, I may do so. Thanks for the input!

Thanks for the feedback! I wanted to keep this looking fast and sleek - as if it was a heavily customized rig, thus the low profile tires and paint job.

Thanks! Here's a final update - I forgot to add fuel tanks. Big Rig - Final LDD Sketch by Steebles1908, on Flickr

I knew what you meant, I didn't take any offense. I posted in Town as well, just trying to get as much feedback as possible. On a side note - your Iron Builder MOCs are blowing my mind.

Here's an update! Big Rig - Continued LDD Work by Steebles1908, on Flickr

This is the first portion of a near-future mobile communications / weapons platform. This is going to tow the giant trailer.

The front grill is already made with 1x2 grill bricks - LDD doesn't render them properly at this angle. This will be built physically as soon as I am done designing. I own most of the pieces, but will have to make a couple bricklink orders to get the wheels and tires, as well as a few of the longer dark red plates. As far as the area behind the cabin, I am contemplating a continuation of the white stripes up into that area. I think some extra color blocking may make up for the lack in texture. Thank you for the feedback! EDIT: Here's an update! Big Rig - Continued LDD Work by Steebles1908, on Flickr

Here's something I've been toying with in LDD - still needs some work. Back half isn't finished, and I'm not yet happy with the front bumper. Comments/Suggestions/Criticisms needed! Big Rig - WIP by Steebles1908, on Flickr

Here's something new - I've been working on it in LDD, it's the first time I've designed using software. I usually build organically. Still a work in progress. Started out as a troop carrier, but I think it may end up as the hauler for a mobile communications platform. I wanted to keep the overall shape like a vintage Peterbilt, but add sleek touches to make it more modern. Let me know what you think could be improved. I'm still not happy with the front bumper area - I think it needs a brush guard or something along those lines. The rear end is also not yet complete. Big Rig - WIP by Steebles1908, on Flickr

Delightfully greebly!

I think the eyes need to be moved to the side of the head, it would be more befitting of a dino. I see what you are going for with the one large claw, but i think it may look more menacing with all three being that size. Great shape overall! The lower jaw is perfect, he reminds me of Grimlock. (Just a little derpy and whiny.) :) Here's an update of my Steiner Labs MOC. Awaiting a BL order so I can clean up the floor and build up the walls. I don't have enough dark bley, ever. :) Steiner Labs - Continued WIP by Steebles1908, on Flickr

Here's a little scene I'm working on - genetic human testing in the Steiner Weapons Labs. Any feedback or ideas would be appreciated. Steiner Laboratory - Work in Progress by Steebles1908, on Flickr

Love, love, love. Kudos!

Yep, most real world buggies and sand rails use a modified air-cooled VW Beetle motor. Though not entirely accurate, this one was designed with those shapes in mind.

Here's a shot with a better view of the engine. There's a couple more angles on my flickr set as well. SWS: Mongoose FAV 2 by Steebles1908, on Flickr

You've done a commendable job of making this thing look purpose-built, fast and deadly. I love the engine cluster, excellent work! Everything here looks like it has a function, it's not just parts slapped on without forethought.The transition to red doesn't make sense to me though, I would have left that dark bley.

I'm working on updating my SWS series with some new photos and editing. Your critiques and suggestions are much anticipated! Steiner Test Template by Steebles1908, on Flickr

Just a quick little build for FebRovery, using one of my favorite themes from childhood! EDIT: Now with photoshopped goodness! Febrovery - Ice Planet Leisure Rover by Steebles1908, on Flickr

That's the helmet from the 2013 A-Wing pilot. I thought it fit here pretty well. +1 internets to you for catching the reference. :)

Another from my SWS series. Started as tablescrap and I like how it ended up. SWS: Scythe Scout Transport by Steebles1908, on Flickr

Si-MOCs will be posting a voting thread today, hopefully.
-
I'm really excited to see the results, and I have high hopes for my FAPC "Triceratron" entry - it seems to have generated a lot of good feedback. January was my first month of heavy building, and I hope it pays off! Even if I don't win, this was a TON of fun and watching the entries roll in over the past month has been a blast. Thanks to Si-MOCs for the hard work - keep it up!
